I've gotten PM'd a lot the past few days about how to get a good amount of referrals through GDI. This may be old news to some of you, but to the newer people this will be helpful. These are the same tactics I use and its helped me build an excellent downline of referrals.

My best ways to get signups for GDI is:

1. Myspace - Build a profile dedicated to GDI. You should have some information maybe a faq section for the millions of potential people on Myspace. Set yourself up with a program for adding friends (ex. Friend Blaster) You can do it manually, but that will take quite some time. Be sure to target people with thousands of friends. There are tons of wanna-be entrepreneurs on Myspace, so its not hard to pick up fresh meat.

2. Craigslist/Backpage - Throw a few ads out there telling people that they can have a website with hosting and a domain name for $10 a month and people will definitely respond. You can fill them in later on about how they can make money with GDI. People hear "make money if you sign up" and instantly think its some kind of scam. Just target people who want to build a website. How you set up the ad and how eye catching it is depends on you. I recommend making your ad in an image format to keep CL from taking down your post for blacklisted words.

3. YouTube - Definitely worth looking into. GDI has plenty of videos you can rip from the site and put on YT. Just make sure its not a long video or else it wont get accepted. It doesn't even have to be a GDI video... get a program that allows you to watermark your vids. Once you do that go watermark all of your uploaded videos with your GDI url. When people see your video.. they know where to go.

4. Traffic Exchange - Be sure to pick a good one. Theres a lot of shady TE's out there. Google is your friend to find one.

5. Blog about it! - With Seo and Wordpress you can get your blog on the first page of Googles search result. Just make sure your content is unique and not the same as some other affiliate whos looking to get referrals as well. Building a better mousetrap to attract referrals is key!

Hope that helps those wondering how to get more GDI referrals. Best of luck to you! If your interested in joining GDI and building up your downline then shoot me a PM and Ill get you going.

I remember GDI being my first shot at making money on the internet and it never worked out for me. Then again that was a few years ago, maybe with what I know now I could go back and make it worth some change.

GDI was the first program for me that I tried when I was brand spanking new to IM, I had a few sign-ups here and there but one day I decided I was going to mass email this list that I got from another site, it had over 300K of email addys, I loaded it up in my Aweber AR, and I got some more leads and thought I hit the gold mine, then...it all came tumbling down some of the leads were from AOL and started whining asking about how I got their emails and that I was spamming them and I got so petrified of the can spam act that I closed my Aweber account and stop promoting GDI altogether. lol (what a noob).

I wish I knew what I know now, I would be atop of the GDI leaderboard, I have to many other ways to make a profit online to fool with GDI anymore, it is a sound business though and will get alot of people interested if marketed properly.

Yikes lol. Damn that "can't" spam act! Don't get me wrong the spam act is a good thing as well. Without it your inbox would recieve 50000 spam ads a day and that would make having an email addy pointless. Its all about jumping through the right hoops in the marketing world.

The best way to get referrals for Global Domains International - GDI - is to get into some system.

There are several systems that you can use to promote GDI and to get referrals for it.

I am using one of them, using the Dream Team Formula system - a Profit Sharing Marketing system - that is placing GDI referrals in the new member's downline for free, 5 levels deep. That is how the GDI downline is constantly growing. With this system, your entire upline is promoting your link, till you get your first referrals, to help you have a better start. After that the system moves on to your next referral, doing the same thing.

My best and most effective ways to get referrals for GDI are bloggings and forum postings!

You could, WITHOUT PAYING A MONTHLY FEE, use the same promotional techniques to market domains or hosting with many other services with affiliate programs. If you must go the MLM route with a domain service, sign up for Commission River (free, no fees) and use it to get commissions from 1 & 1 and other domain vendors.

All MLMs have that structure, as does the program I mentioned for its domain service vendors, it's not unique to GDI. There's no need to be coming out of pocket each month to achieve the same long term residual money. The majority of those paying the fee do not see the net income. GDI is milking and gouging its marketers and treating them as part of (or no different from) the customer base. Nothing's wrong with passive earnings, just drop the needless cashflow liability.

The DreamTeamFormula seems to work I signed up under ARTAGNAN1978, and it seems to me she kept her word. I signed up and after a day I saw my first referral under GDI, she also trained me and gave a excellent guide which was so valuable, I now understand how to promote GDI the right way which I did not know at first.

DreamTeamFormula it works, if you are interested you can sign up for 7 days, let DreamTeamFormula show you in those 7 days that is works, and If it does not prove you that is works you can always cancel with GDI..

Just want to say that the team I joined with Artagnan1978 in my upline is a great team of serious Internet Marketers who are willing to help me. The posts of artagnan1978 are located in the beginning of this thread.

Take this opportunity in consideration, for all who had troubles with GDI just like me.. The best thing you can do is to join a system just like artagnan1978 said in this thread already. This way your downline will grow by it self, and you get kind of a kick start at GDI.

Just imagine when you get your first 5 people in your downline and you can teach them to do the same, just like artagnan1978 learned me. Your income will be great,, you wont be rich but surely have a nice income a month..

check out her site where she proofs the income from GDI, and testimonials of others who she also helped to have a larger downline.

hey i have a questions is it possible to join that DreamTeamFormula but already being in GDI..

Click to expand...

Yes it is possible, but you will not profit from your upline and you have to pay a monthly commission. If you join when you are already a GDI member your downline only profits of the DreamTeamFormula. So Your link will not be promoted by your upline and your downline will not grow.

I had the same problem, I was already a member at GDI, but I only had 2 people under me so I just decided to join under artagnan1978 and to grow my downline using DreamTeamFormula.

For me it was worth the risk artagnan1978 has helped me a lot, but I do not know how many people you have in your downline, so think about it.

That's the spirit of mlm, and the right interpretation of the short sentence is (multi level marketing) but should be "motivated loyal marketers"
I'd like to join this dream team formula, if you teach me to grow the number of referrals + promoting my link I think it has great value. I have been thinking about mlm a lot in these days. I wondered yesterday into googled thread on how to get leads that made me very annoyed. The one posting said the best place to start is with friends and family. That was a completely lousy unvaluable tip, as 1. not all have that many friends interested in such, 2. It can easily be bad for your personal life filled with envy or some kind of competition that lead to an unfriendly atmosphere, I'm just sayin'

I'm thinking what's the best way to get out to many people at a time, thinking twitter and myspace and perhaps facebook, could it be done?
Anyway I would like to join an approved network that has a good security level of succeeding with the right guidance and learning curve, so pm me cause i'm serious in this and can then sign up under you.

yes mlm that's it
Some systems are better than others, and I have been researching a bit
about this "dream team system" some of the people in this thread talk about.
Its a little bit above 200$ a month as I read it, and that sound a little expencive to me, but your upline is helping you getting referrals atleast in the beginning as I understand it, which is positive. However I wanna prepare myself before going into this, as this is a substantial amount of money to use on a monthly bases. If you get it all set up, I think it can be a very prosperous business for anyone.

I just wanna say this is not for everyone, you do need to have the needed motivation, and consistency to blossom/finding referrals for you and your downline atleast in the beginning, I'm motivated but I need to figure out which way is the best to aquire referrals, otherwise it will be a very expencive experience for me.

I did not test google adwords on GDI,, but I think it could be a good way to generate leads,, the only thing is that the beginners here do not have the budget I geuss to start out in adwords..

I would recommend the DreamTeamFormula,, as it is free to use,, you have a team of uplines that are promoting your link,, and you will be trained to use the same methods your upline uses to generate leads,,

I joined,, I got the guide and all the methods are free and they do work,, I am now a member of the dreamteam for one week and I have already 2 members in my downline,, so it is going great

so for the beginners in MLM and especially at GDI,, my recommendation is to use the dreamteamformula.

PS: remember,, as a new member of our team my next referrals will go in your downline
